Got a letter from my sister in Tennessee. [View all]
She’s dying of cancer. I’d told my other sister I’d like to go back and visit her while she is still able to function, and she apparently told the TN sister. I wish she hadn’t said anything because she is hoping I’ll come. I talked to her recently and said I wasn’t planning on traveling while Covid is still raging. She wrote, as she’d told me when we talked, that all the Covid stuff are lies told by the left wing media. She also wanted to discuss the Bible with me. I’d like to see her but I can’t imagine being stranded there for a couple days. Of all my family she is the only one who is totally brainwashed by the RW nut jobs. Her daughter is there taking care of her and she is a flaming RWer, between the two of them I don’t think I could take it. It’s sad when politics drives a family apart. I’m trying to think of a way I could see her briefly, but I don’t think I’m willing to spend a thousand bucks for a trip there and back for a one day visit.
By the way she says all the deaths are at nursing homes and their deaths are falsely be attributed to Covid when it was from other things. And, her daughter has her convinced that there is no need for masks, you just have to wear gloves everywhere (so I guess she’s not totally denying Covid) and sanitize surfaces. From what I understand it’s the infections which are airborne, and catching Covid from touching some surfaces exceedingly rare. Anyway, I’m just sharing a frustrating situation.
